About
As a current Harvard student and previous camp counselor, I have had the opportunity to work with students across all age groups and disciplines (ages 6-21 in math, Spanish, science, history, SAT and college apps).
My tutoring style is to ensure mastery of topics by explaining how and why they work. I am very good at taking complex topics and making them easier to understand.
Working with students to achieve their academic goals is one of my greatest passions. Over the past two years I have been a counselor and dirctor at an academic enrichment camp for youth in Boston.
Finding ways to explain concepts that make sense to each student was one of the most exciting parts of the job! I love helping students reach their "aha!" moment when the concept clicks.

Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I recently helped a student edit their College Essay. This was a really exciting tutoring experience for me because I was able to help this student express their personal story and dreams. We worked closely together for several months and crafted a beautiful essay. He is now going to be attending a presitgous school and I am proud to have helped him get there.
